Simon Waghorn recently acquired Astrolabe as a fully family-owned business and their wonderful range of wines continue to excite us. All of the fruit for this wine comes from the cool climate Awatere Valley sub-region of Marlborough giving a medium-bodied and textured wine with aromas of lime zest and elderflower. The palate bursts with flavours of preserved lemon, fresh herbs and green bell pepper. It finishes with mouth-watering acidity, lingering lime and herbal notes.

In the vineyard

Taken from several cool climate vineyards within the Awatere valley subzone

In the winery

The fruit was machine harvested in cool evening conditions, de-stemmed and lightly pressed with minimal skin contact. Clear, cold-settled juice was fermented in stainless steel vats at low temperatures, and using neutral wine yeast strains to allow the powerful fruit flavours to dominate.
